Why this must be read: The basic premise of this story is simple: Dean Winchester pops unintentionally through a portal and ends up onboard Serenity. The basic premise does not begin to do this story justice. For one thing, this is such a smooth, seamless crossover that one can hardly even see the joining stitches. The characters react to each other in totally plausible and organic ways, and Dean fits into the 'verse with the exact mixture of discomfort and familiarity that he ought to have. All of the voices are delightfully spot-on, the dialogue is gold, the Mal POV is simply perfect, the plot is novel and interesting, and the world is beautifully realized and vividly detailed. The slow build toward a relationship between Dean and Mal is wonderfully paced to feel natural and integral to the story; it does not eclipse the sterling character work on the entire cast, or the excellently satisfying non-romantic relationships that Dean builds with the rest of the crew. This fic is posted in several parts, so be sure to look out for the link to the next chapter at the bottom of the post. And if you like this story? There're a few more that follow it in the same crossover 'verse.
